Whether or not to include a single year, or range of years in
the copyright statement is ultimately a policy decision for the
copyright holder to take (IBM in this case I presume), and not
subject to community vote/preferences.

I will note that some (possibly even many) organizations consider
the year to be largely redundant and devoid of legal benefit, so
are happy with basically any usage of dates (first year, most recent
year, a range of years, or none at all). With this in mind, QEMU is
willing to accept any usage wrt dates in the copyright statement.

It is possible that IBM have a specific policy their employees are
expected to follow. If so, follow that.

With regards,
Daniel
